When Mitzi’s college-aged son Journey, received a harrowing mental health diagnosis, she scrambled for a way to “fix” him. As she and her son bounced between prescriptions and therapists, she watched her brilliant boy move in and out of madness. In the midst of her hunt for a solution, Journey stepped off a six-story building and fell to his death.

Grieving and in shock, she poured through a collection of blog posts written by her son before his suicide. As she continued to learn more about the true recovery of mental illness, Mitzi combined her experiences with Journey’s account to create a raw, vulnerable narrative. This is their story…

Journey: A Mother’s Account of Love, Loss and Spiritual Healing is a gripping tale for anyone touched by mental illness. Through Mitzi’s shared story and her son’s brilliant, prescient writings, the book explores coping, acceptance, and the surprising possibility of embracing tragedy. Through the “Journey’s Dream” charity and this spiritual account, Journey’s legacy endures to provide inspiration, healing, and transformation.

Journey is a memoir that shines a light on mental illness and the lives of children lost too soon. If you like soul-nurturing narratives, cathartic tales of connectedness, and masterful storytelling, then you’ll love Mitzi Montague-Bauer’s vulnerable and authentic page-turner.

Give yourself the gift of Journey, a beautiful book from both mother and son.
